I really don't have much compassion for gang members shooting each other
unless innocents are hurt or killed.

I have a *lot* of compassion and concern for nut cases entering
schools and killing 15 to 20 innocent kids ranging from 6 to 17 years old.

A parent's most important responsibility is the safety and well-being of
the kids they bring into this world. I can't begin to imagine the
anguish the parents of the recently deceased kids must feel.


Unfortunately innocents do get killed in these gang shootings.

As for the kids, it makes far more sense to harden the schools and get
more serious about identifying the people who would want to do harm in
there. Playing Whack a mole with the various weapons they might use is
just trying to prevent the last tragedy, not the next one.
